i can't install suse...


hi, my name is matias, i'm argentinian.
i have a problem.
when i'm installing suse enterprise 10 it tells me in the software part:

Software
No se ha encontrado ningun catálogo en cd:///?devices=/dev/hdc
Error: No hay ninguna propuesta

and traducted to english it should say:

Software
the install did not found any catalogue in cd:///?devices=/dev/hdc
Fail: There is no offer


so, how can i fix this?


the installator is a dvd.

thanks you

G . H . Z .

/dev/hdc denotes that your cdrom drive is secondary master check thats correct,
change if necessary

Hi Matias
I'm sorry I didn't make myself clear.
Suse is looking for the source dvd at /dev/hdc ,
If your drive is somewhere else i.e Its connected to the same cable as your hard drive it'll be /dev/hdb
You'll need to tell suse where the drive is connected that holds the source DVD is.
Primary - Master - /dev/hda
- Slave - /dev/hdb

Secondary - Master /dev/hdc
- Slave /dev/hdd
You can check where the drive is in the bios
